How to use Find my iPhone

 

Step 1: Check the requirements. Although optimized for the iPhone 5, Find my iPhone is available on all devices equipped with iOS 5 or later. The utility is completely free and compatible beginning with the iPhone 3GS, third-generation iPod touch, the iPad, and all the latest versions thereof. A valid iCloud account is also required and devices that lack network coverage must be connected to a registered Wi-Fi network to be located.
Step 2: Download and install the app: Tap the blue App Store icon located on your iOS device, search “Find my iPhone” within the Search panel and select application from the list of results. Afterward, tap the gray Free button in the top-right corner and followed by the resulting green Install button to download and install the app. Alternatively, download the app from iTunes and sync it with your iOS device.
Step 3: Activate Find my iPhone. Once installed, tap the main Settings icon, followed the iCloud option near the center of the Settings menu. Enter your Apple ID in the resulting pop-up window if prompted, or tap Get a free Apple ID and follow the onscreen instructions to set up your free iCloud account. Swipe to the bottom of the menu once signed in, toggle the on-off switch to the right of Find my iPhone and tap the gray Allow button from the resulting pop-up window. Repeat the process using the same iCloud account information for any iOS device you wish to view.
Step 4: Lose your iOS device. Obviously this doesn’t come highly recommended, but finding your iOS device once lost is likely the reason you chose to use the app in the first place.
Step 5: Locate your iOS device. Once lost, you can either use another iOS device or your iCloud account via the Web to locate your lost or stolen device. Keep in mind it’s not possible to locate the device if didn’t activate the Find my iPhone function before losing your device.
Using another iOS device: Tap the Find my iPhone icon from the home screen (the icon resembles a old-school radar display), enter your iCloud login credentials in the appropriate fields and tap the gray Sign In button located at the bottom of the display. Once logged in, select the lost or stolen device from a the list of devices setup with Find my iPhone and view the device’s location.
Additional options for remotely wiping the phone and forcing it to play a sound — accessible by tapping the device’s pin followed by the blue arrow — are also available, along with a intuitive Lost Mode that provides options for locking the device with a 4-digit passcode and displaying a contact phone number directly on the lock screen.
Using your iCloud account on the Web: Open your favorite browser and navigate to the iCloud homepage before signing in with your Apple ID and password. Afterword, click the large Find my iPhone icon, enter your iCloud password once more and select the lost or stolen device from a the list of devices setup with Find my iPhone.
Additional options for remotely wiping the phone and forcing it to play a sound should appear in the upper-right corner, along with a intuitive Lost Mode button that provides options for locking the device with a 4-digit passcode and displaying a contact phone number directly on the lock screen.
Step 6: Take action. Once you locate your iPhone or iOS device, use one of Find my iPhone’s built-in functions to help recover the device. Tap the gray Play Sound button featuring the speaker to force the your phone to play a high-pitched ping continuously for two minutes or tap the gray Erase iPhone button followed by the Erase confirmation to completely wipe your device of all content and user settings. If running iOS 6, tap the middle Lost Mode button, enter a phone number where you can be reached and type a message to be shown on your phone. Click the brown Done button in the upper-right corner when finished entering your message in the text field.
There’s no guarantee the ringing, erasing or messaging will help you get your device back — regardless if you know it’s precise whereabouts. Rather than confront the potential thief yourself, it may be wise to contact your service provider and the police, informing them of the situation and your intentions to recover the device. You never know when things might escalate like they did in San Francisco.

How to Fix iPhone 6 App Issues

 

We’ve been hearing a lot of complaints about applications crashing and freezing in iOS 8. iPhone 6 users, in particular, have been extremely vocal. Apple’s not going to be fixing these issues and it’s going to be up to third-party developers to take care of any random problems. This means that fixes, permanent ones, could take awhile. Fortunately, there are a few things that iPhone 6 users can try to make the app experience far more stable.
First, make sure applications on the iPhone 6 are updated. App updates with support for iOS 8 have been trickling out since launch. Many iPhone users are horrible about updating apps and that’s a habit that should be broken right now.
iPhone 6 users who are forgetful or lazy will want to turn on automatic App Store updates because it will keep apps automatically updated and ensure that they are always on the latest version with the latest bug fixes.

One issue that typically surfaces after every iOS update is battery drain. iPhone and iPad owners consistently complain about the negative impact that iOS updates have on their battery life and iOS 8 unfortunately has not escaped their wrath. Even iPhone 6 users are complaining about bad battery life.
While we’ve heard a number of complaints about iPhone battery life after the iOS 8 update, iPhone 6 users should not expect Apple to deliver a permanent fix inside iOS 8.1 or any other iOS 8 update. The complaints simply aren’t widespread enough. There’s also a good chance that the battery drain on the iPhone 6 isn’t being caused by iOS 8.
Fortunately, there are quite a few things that iPhone 6 owners can try should the device start experiencing heavy battery drain after installing the iOS 8.0.2 update or if iOS 8.0 itself is presenting problems.
While there are a ton of things that people recommend, we think there are several key fixes that iPhone 6 users should try. These fixes range from small settings tweaks to changes in daily overall use. All of them have the potential to fix bad iOS 8 battery life and we highly recommend looking at them before performing a hard reset on the iPhone 6.

Find Apps Using Your Battery Life

The iOS 8 update adds a new feature that shows you what apps are using most of your battery life. Very often bad iPhone battery life is linked to a broken or misbehaving app. This new iOS 8 feature lets you see what apps use most of your battery life and even find usage and background activity. A chat app like Google Hangouts can use a lot of battery life, even if you aren’t in it all day.
To see what apps are using your iOS 8 battery life, go to Settings -> General -> Usage -> Battery Usage. On this screen you can see what apps use your battery the most in the last 24 hours and in the last 7 days.
You may need to uninstall an app to get better iOS 8 battery life, but the solution may be to avoid using battery hogging apps during the day — like games and watching media.

Turn Off Background App Refresh

One of the first things you can try to get better iOS 8 battery life is turning off Background App Refresh. This feature lets apps connect and update in the background, so they can show updates as soon as you open them, but this also uses more battery life. Apple shares on the iOS 8 Background App refresh screen, “Turning off apps may help preserve battery life.”
Go to Settings -> General -> Background App Refresh -> Turn it all off or off for individual apps.
You can turn Background App Refresh off for all apps or only for certain apps. If you see an app listed with background activity at the top, you may want to simply turn off that app.

Turn Off Push Email

If you use push email to get messages from work as soon as they arrive, you are slowly draining your battery life with every pushed message. If you don’t need email delivered instantly you can turn off push email and get better battery life.
Go to Settings -> Mail , Contacts, Calendars -> Fetch New Data – > Choose the setting for each email account. 
The best option we’ve found is to push the time between checking for new messages to Fetch every 15-30 minutes instead of constantly looking.

Turn Screen Brightness Down

The iOS 8 update didn’t crank up your screen brightness, but this is one of the easiest ways to get better iOS 8 battery life.
Swipe up from the bottom of your home screen to open Control Center. Slide the brightness indicator to the left to turn the brightness down.
You can go to Settings -> Display & Brightness -> Auto-Brightness -> Off. Normally you can leave this on, but if you need to make sure the battery lasts all day while on a trip turning it off and leaving brightness at a minimum will help you get better battery life.

Turn Off 4G LTE

Using the faster 4G LTE network can use more data, and if you are on the edge of coverage this may be the quickest fix for bad iOS 8 battery life. Try turning this off to see if it improves. If it does you may need to leave this off when you are in this area.
Go to Settings -> Cellular -> Enable LTE -> Off. This is not a setting I would leave off all the time, because it makes anything related to the Internet take longer, but in some cases it is a quick fix.

Airplane Mode

This is a dramatic step to get better iOS 8 battery life, but if you only need to play games or read a book, and you don’t want the iPhone to die, you can turn on Airplane mode.
Pull the Control Center up from the bottom of your home screen and tap on the small plane icon.
This turns off WiFi and Cellular radios completely, so you can’t do as much with the iPhone or iPad, but the battery lasts longer for offline activities like taking photos and playing games.

Restart the iPhone

If you have not restarted the iPhone since you installed the iOS 8 update or for a few days even, go ahead and turn the iPhone off then back on.
Sometimes a simple restart is enough to stop whatever was causing bad iOS 8 battery life and reset things so the battery will last all day.
Hold the power button down until the screen changes, then slide to the right to power off. After a minute or two hold the power button to turn it back on.

Reset All Settings

When you check the iOS 8 battery usage in our first tip you may see usage and standby listed as the same. If this is the case you need to take more drastic measures because something is wrong with your iPhone. The first thing to try is Reset All Settings. This does not delete your data or wipe the phone, only the settings. If something is messed up this may fix horrible iOS 8 battery life in about 5 minutes.

Restore the iOS 8 Update

If none of these iOS 8 battery life tips fix problems after your iOS 8 update you may need to backup the iPhone and restore from scratch. Perhaps something went wrong during your iOS 8 update, or there is just a bug from the upgrade, but this process will wipe it clean and install iOS 8 from scratch. This can solve a lot of problems.
You’ll need to back up the iPhone or iPad because this will delete all of your photos, apps and data from the device. You can restore from a backup, but there is a chance that will bring some problems back so the best bet is to set this up like a new iPhone.

1. Plug in and backup to the computer or to iCloud
2. Turn off Find My iPhone – Settings -> iCloud -> Find my iPhone -> Off
3. in iTunes Click Restore
4. Follow the prompts and the iPhone will reinstall iOS 8 from scratch.
5. When it completes click Restore from Backup to put your information back on the iPhone or Choose to set up as a new iPhone.

This process takes 15 to 30 minutes depending on download times and if you need to backup or restore.

Apple now sells the iPhone 6 in China and its iPhone 6 Plus. This is a more than important moment since the Asian lot to Apple, especially since the Tim Cook era. Preorders set new records, scores were given informally and Tim Cook confirmed the news last night during the keynote about the iPad and Mac. He would not say more, except that this is the biggest iPhone launch ever made to date.

iPhone 6 China Apple Store
The arrival in China was complicated, various agreements have been found to sell the two terminals on site. The first was given by the Chinese there one month government, the second followed shortly after. Apple has not managed to get it sooner, it would have allowed it to sell its iPhone 6 on 19 September, the day the two models arrived in several countries, including the United States or France .

Some Chinese have been impatient and chose to go through the black market to obtain a model before the official marketing. Prices were high, the milestone of $ 3 000 was easily reached.

The iPhone 6 Plus should outsell the iPhone 6, the Chinese like smartphones with big screens. Previous information will in any case in this direction, they should quickly confirm.

Microsoft has updated Skype for iPhone by switching to version 5.6. With this updated version of Skype will be compatible with all screen smartphone Apple's iconic sizes. This includes the 3.5-inch screen with resolution of 320 x 480 pixels of the original Apple iPhone, and the screen is 5.5 inches with the resolution of 1080 x 1920 pixels of the iPhone 6 More Apple . Of course, screens 4 inches of iPhone 5, iPhone 5S and 5C Apple iPhone are all in this new update and it's rather good news. With the update in question, Skype users who have the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus will be able to see more recent posts.

By posting more instant messages in a conversation, Skype users will be perfectly able to keep in touch with their families and loved ones quickly and easily. The latest version of Skype for iPhone is now available in the App Store. She is waiting for you!

• Turn off Bluetooth and Reboot

The first thing to try is to turn off your Bluetooth and restart your iPhone or iPad:

• Turn off Bluetooth from Control Center, or by going to Settings > Bluetooth and turning off the switch.
• Reboot your iPhone by holding the Home button and the Power button until you see the Apple logo
• Now enable Bluetooth again from Control Center or Settings > Bluetooth

• Forget Device

• Open Settings and go to Bluetooth.
• Tap on the “i” icon against the device name you’re having problems connecting.
• Tap on the “Forget This Device” button and confirm your action.
• Now pair your iPhone or iPad with the device again, and see if the issue has been solved.

• Reset Network Settings

• Open Settings and navigate to General > Reset
• Tap on Reset Network Settings
• You’ll be required to enter your passcode, if you have one
• Confirm your action in the popup

• Restore and Setup as new iPhone

  

   

You Can Now Use Siri to Identify and Rate Songs

To identify a track with Siri:

• Play any song on a device or speakers, if it’s not already playing.

• Hold the home button on your iOS device to invoke Siri and ask, “What song is playing?”

• Siri will respond by saying: “Let me listen.”, “Listening” or something similar, and take a few seconds to recognize the track and display the results.

• You can of course do this by invoking Siri without pressing the home button.

Disable Wi-Fi Networking Services
Many users have reported that they’ve solved their issues by disabling Wi-Fi Networking under Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services. This only relates to your location being used for Wi-Fi Networking, so it doesn’t disable Wi-Fi entirely.

Reset Network Settings
Most networking related issues I’ve experienced have been fixed after resetting network settings. Resetting these settings flushes caches and clears DHCP settings and other networking related info. To reset network settings, open the Settings app and navigate to Settings > General > Reset and tap on Reset Network Settings.

Set Custom DNS
Often times, if your ISPs DNS servers are having problems, you can switch to Google DNS or OpenDNS. You can follow the instructions in the post linked below to change your DNS settings.


Restore and Setup as new iPhone
If none of these tips fix your issues, the last resort is to restore your iPhone or iPad via iTunes, and set it up as a new device. This way, you start afresh, and get rid of possibly problematic customisations and settings on your device. Follow the instructions in the post linked below to do a clean restore to the latest version of iOS via iTunes.

It has been about a month since Apple rolled out its new operating system for iPhones, iPads, and iPods but it seems like many have still not switched over to the newer version for a number of reasons. There were initial reports of many kinds especially the ones that asked for around 5 GB of free storage space on the device before the installation. Although many of the users have got past those troubles, it seems like many still need to look into other issues.
iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 users are facing a majority of issues and that's why the adoption rate is lower than what was initially expected by the company. Most of 4S users said that they had initiated the upgrade process but as it was taking a lot of time, they cancelled it in between. As a matter of fact, problems do not end with successful update. Battery drain, network issues, and inability to answers calls are just few of the problems that new iOS 8 users have reported across the Apple complaint forums all across the world.
So what is the best way to deal with these iOS 8 update issues for iPhone 4S and 5? It is clever to initiate the update during night time by connecting iPhone to iTunes on your computer. This way, only 1 GB of storage space on phone will be enough. Keep the battery charged before the process and expect the update to take at least a couple hours depending on your internet speed. Once it is complete, spend some time exploring the system.
Do not install apps that do not serve any purpose to save battery. Also manage the power by adjusting screen brightness, timeout and 3G network. Although Apple has rolled new updates and bug fixes for most of the problems, Bluetooth seems to be a common problem with almost no solution. That functionality may suffer for a few days but Apple plans to come up with another update in less than two days. Many experts also believe that if you haven't upgraded yet, wait for at least a couple of days for new updates.
